What It Does
Poly Suga Mulse D9 is a pre-solubilized, ready-to-use emulsifier blend combining Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside (an APG surfactant) with Polyglyceryl-6 Caprylate and Polyglyceryl-4 Caprate, all derived from renewable plant-based feedstocks. This synergistic combination is specifically designed to create stable oil-in-water emulsions without the need for traditional PEG-based emulsifiers, making it particularly attractive for natural, organic, and 'clean beauty' formulations. Formulators choose it for its cold-process compatibility, broad oil-phase solubilization capacity, and its ability to produce elegant, lightweight emulsions with a non-greasy skin feel while meeting Ecocert/COSMOS certification criteria.
